Legal Question in Business Law in Arkansas
Can a vendor selling to a retailer close account...
I have a company in Arkansas that has been receiving goods from a firm for over 20 years. My account is in complete documented good standing. My question is, can the vendor stop selling me product in this relationship if it continues selling other similar retailers the same goods? I can also prove that it is for personal, non-business or account-related reasons. Would I have a potential lawsuit or do they just have the right to stop at any time for any reason whatsoever? Thanks for any advice.

If the vendor's action give your compeition an unfair competitive advantage or are in restraint of trade, you might have a lawsuit against it. These types of cases are very fact specific. You have to show that you are damaged by the actions, lost business, increased cost, increased prices, etc...
